Last night’sWarehouse 13featured better widget , delved into the dirty detail of one character ’s past times , and bring in us to the series resister . Could we last be seeing the show break out of its weekly artefact Richard Morris Hunt ?
In this week ’s instalment , “ Implosion , ” we ultimately see Warehouse 13 violate out of its artefact - of - the - week game , even as we see it continue to clamber to seek to find its footing .
We know from talking to actor Saul Rubinekthat his theatrical role , Artie , has a bass , dark secret , and tonight we at last amaze to delve into Artie ’s yesteryear , a past tense that includes espionage charges and a stint in prison . But first , Peter and Myka have to slip a Nipponese sword ( one that , incidentally , can make its holder inconspicuous ) and replace it with a fake , when an implosion grenade goes off in the Nipponese agency , plainly assume the artefact with it .

This week ’s episode had its part of great minute . For one thing , the artefact were more gadgety and less mystic this time around : the implosion grenade , the mesmerizing Ice Flower firecracker , the gun that vaporize people — the writer even attempt to give the Japanese sword ’s powers of invisibleness a physical account , albeit a vague one . And the interaction between Peter and Myka and their fellow Secret Service agent offer some moments of levity while promise to make the series a little richer . determine Peter and Myka essay to explain their appointment ( Myka smugly describing it as “ archival ” ) and convert the other agents that they ’ve been hit with a shooter that erases myopic - condition memory when obviously the broker recall no such affair brings the show ’s absurdness a bit into the literal world , and reintroducing their former boss Dickinson as the anti - Artie adds another dimension . I like the idea that it ’s not always the Warehouse vs. the artifacts and their abusers , but the Warehouse vs. the rest of the Secret Service vs. vie artifact hunters .
And we presently watch that there is indeed a rival artefact Orion behind the implosion grenade and the theft of the invisibility - grant sword . James MacPherson , Artie ’s professional and amatory competitor , disapproves of the Warehouse ’s mission , and use exactly the kind of technology Artie and company want to keep from the public . James tote up a nice bit of machination to the episode and brings us out of the hebdomadal drudgery of finding some mayhem - wreaking twist . And , from the title of the season ’s final episode “ MacPherson , ” he could serve as the season ’s Big Bad .
But there ’s also a great deal about this episode that ’s strangely sharp . For one affair , the absence of Claudia ( which is mentioned , but never satisfactorily explained ) feels like a step backwards and an excuse for alienate Artie from the rest of the cast . And too much of Artie ’s past times is bring out too quickly — we see James , who is a theatrical role from Artie ’s past , as well as the womanhood who once choose James over Artie , and get the grip on Artie ’s deplorable record all in one instalment . Also , when it comes to Myka and Peter ’s respective relationships with Artie , premature instalment have n’t led up to this episode in a acceptable way . Myka complains that Artie treats his flying field agent like redshirts ( and Peter is adorably too unrestrained that she understands the nomenclature ) , a touch sensation confirm by their trips to the infirmary , though we have n’t view this persuasion bubbling nearly enough . And Peter ’s sensation of betrayal at learn about Artie ’s past does n’t strike home as much as if he ’d developed more agnatic feeling toward his raw boss .
I keep waiting for the relationships between the characters to gel into something a bit more familial ( as well as a more distinguishable office for aura - reader Leena who feels too much like a mere societal salve ) . I distrust Claudia could be the mucilage to bind the squad together , and the new developments with the rest of the Secret Service and James could push and nudge the squad into shape . I ’m encouraged by the unexampled plot elements , but I do marvel if , in just five more episode , Warehouse 13 can get where it ’s trying to go .
